Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Whole wheat pita bread
- 1 cup Hummus
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 1 small Red onion
- 0.5 cup Kalamata olives
- 0.5 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 cups Fresh spinach leaves
- 2 tablespoons Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Dried oregano
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Wash and prepare the vegetables: Slice the cucumber into thin rounds, halve the cherry tomatoes, thinly slice the red onion, and chop the Kalamata olives if desired.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to make the dressing.
In a large bowl, combine the cucumber slices, cherry tomato halves, red onion slices, Kalamata olives, and spinach leaves. Drizzle the dressing over the vegetables and toss gently to coat evenly.
Warm the pita bread briefly in a toaster or skillet to make it soft and pliable.
Spread about 2 tablespoons of hummus onto one side of each pita bread.
Divide the dressed vegetables evenly among the pita breads, placing them on the hummus layer.
Top the vegetables with crumbled feta cheese.
Fold each pita bread in half to create a sandwich or wrap them tightly in parchment paper for easier handling.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Greek Veggie Pita Sandwich!
